I did wonder whether it had something to do with the Roll-Out-The-Barrel machine or the Domino with knob/accuator on the front, another revamp possibly... What is the window on the left for?

I've been waiting for that question, because I really have no idea. Can anyone else identify it?
Here's a picture of how I believe the machine started its life. A Max Jentzsch & Merz Omega circa 1931..better check that the oiginal parts aren't in your consignment!

I wonder if BP's machine is original and the one above was a vendor option with reel stops, which may explain the knob on the lower right side and the large coin/vendor tray... also the front looks like vendor windows?

Personally, I'm doubtful. BP's version features a square payout cup (which I've always associated with 60s onwards machines - although, granted some earlier machines may have them) and the lower wood front piece on BP's machine just has a look of not being that old. So, if the machine I've cited is 30s and German, I'd guess that BP's is an example which has washed up on our shores and been under the sensitive screwdriver of a showman.

Following the number of PMs I've had from forum members enquiring about this machine here are the photos I promised.

It plays superbly, the mechanism is very crisp and sounds as precise in its action as a BDR does.
It plays on old penny and pays out on tokens which can also be used to play (hence the two slots) The tokens are small and those P.E. tokens fit so I guess a tanner would as well.

The little window to the left of the reels displays a drum which on payout spins to show the amount you are winning, how cool is that?

The back door is metal as is the top front casting.

The whole thing is as heavy as a HiTop.

The reel graphics look professional and genuine as does the whole thing, so I don't know what to think.
